Didn't they have the same 40-39 race last time they polled Colorado?

Anyways, did they seriously not poll the MO senate race...

Apparently Trump is doing well with Hispanics in Colorado. This race is more or less tied at this point..maybe Clunton has an edge..

Yeah, and Hillary's only getting 46% of the Hispanic vote when Obama got 75% last time in the state...

Also why is there no education crosstab?

MO: Don't know why this needed to be polled
VA: Good result for Hillary
CO: Concerning, but most of the undecided voters are younger voters and I have doubts on the Hispanic numbers (I imagine Hispanics that can do an online poll will be more friendly to Trump). Also this is no shift since their June poll.

Yeah, Latino Decisions (9th September mind, so it's old) had her up 72-17 amongst Hispanics. Her best state outside of NC at that time. She'll have slipped a bit, but the polls figures should be taken with a grain of salt.

CO is concerning, but remember that it always polls this close when the race is close nationally. Hillary seems to have a much higher ceiling though.

If we are seeing a realignment based on educational attainment, CO shouldn't be this close. Then again, the Latino number in this poll is laughable, so that might explain part of it.

Keep in mind that a good percent of CO Hispanics (and a majority in NM) are ancestral residents who are basically the Carholic white working class culturally.  Those parts of the state are unlikely to be turned off by Trump as much as Hispanics are nationally.

Also those that are probably the most turned off by Trump, might not be full represented in an online poll.

Colorado, CBS/YouGov, 9/21-9/13
Not Sure votes
White - 11%, Hispanic - 12%

Colorado Exit Poll 2012 - White 78% | Hispanic 14%

White 78% x Not sure 11% = 8.58%
Hispanic 14% x Not sure 12% = 1.68%

and red avatars are thinking, oh! oh! oh! Hispanics! Hillary has bigger space to expand.

lol

It seems Red Avatars noticed 12% of Hispanic LV answered 'Not Sure'(Undecided)
Meanwhile 11% of white LV answered 'Not sure'

Colorado 2012 exit Poll - White 78%  Hispanic 14%

so,
White 78% x 11%(undecided) = 8.58%
Hispanic 14% x 12%(undecided) = 1.68%

Even consider Hillay has higher +% margins of Hispanics.
It looks TRUMP has bigger spaces to expand than hillary.

This Poll:
White - TRUMP 43% | Hillary 37% | Johnson 6% | Stein 2% |
Hispanic - Hillary 46% | TRUMP 20% | Johnson 9% | Stein 3%

Virginia Poll - undersampled White Evagelicals horribly (Yougov already did several times of FL/OH  polls.)

2012 Exit Poll(VA): White Evangelicals 23%
http://www.cnn.com/election/2012/results/state/VA/president/
CBS/YouGov 9/21-9/23: White Evangelicals 13.65%

adjust the poll as 2012 Exit Poll Ratios

1) Hillary: White Evan(23%)x14% + Non-White-Evan(77%)x50%= 41.72%
2) TRUMP: White Evan(23%)x69% + Non-White-Evan(77%)x32%= 40.51%
3) Johnson: White Evan(23%)x4% + Non-White-Evan(77%)x8%= 7.08%
4) Stein: White Evan(23%)x0% + Non-White-Evan(77%)x1%= 0.77%

Hillary +1.21%  :p

Agree.
And with the Hispanic community in this poll showing a "unusual" lower-than-normal number, I believe that Hillary's lead here is higher than +1. Clinton's overall lead in CO (right now) is probably in the area of +4 or +5.

Colorado is among the firewall states, if trump can break it game over folks.

If trump wants to win here he must increase his lead with INDs to double digits in this poll he leads by +6 (with 15%  undecided), In Quinnipiac poll+9 and in Emerson poll +15 (estimated).

He also needs to solidify his position with republicans ( 17 % of white evangelical undecided).

Hillary is a bad fit for Colorado, but Trump is worse.

However, if educated Pubs come home, Trump will have a chance. They are still undecided/pro-Johnson/anti-Trump and we won't know how they decided at least until after the first debate.

If Trump really has 90% among Republicans nationally, then Conway succeeded in getting him what he needed among the holdouts.

Clearly more work is needed with Evangelicals, though.

As I have been saying for Months, Trump needs to go for a massive win with indies with some kind of Perot style reform agenda. 90% of Republicans, 78% among Evangelicals, Massive turnout and support among Working Class Whites and a double digit lead among indies is a strong enough coalition to break the freiwal.

That impacts Colorado, it also impacts NC, PA, FL and the midwest, as well the two competitive New England states.

Funny, because I always thought CO would go off the deep end for Democrats and be noncompetitive by 2020, while VA would remain a close D+1 affair for a few more cycles.

It is worth noting that Obama underpolled here both times by almost as much as he did in NV.  Plenty of final 2012 polls had Romney tied or leading.  Also, Hickenlooper beat his polls both times, particularly in 2010 when it looked like he was in an MOE race.  While Gardner lost, he was expected to lose by more than he did. All things considered, a Dem should be fairly happy with a bare bones lead in CO in this era.
Trump is an awful candidate for VA and Hillary is not as bad in VA as elsewhere. Still VA moving left for sure.

Maybe Hillary's a bad fit in CO, I'm not sure, frankly.

Obama did overperform his CO polls for sure. He did quite well, with an RCP average of +1.5 and a win of +5.4, so that makes me feel better about this.

However, didn't you mean "While Gardner won"? He actually matched his RCP average to the T. Average of 2.5, won by 2.5

FTR, someone really needs to fix Wikipedia's election results. They have the wrong numbers for Gardner and in fact it seems like a lot of other races. I wonder where they are getting their numbers from.

There's no such thing as game over when he's tied in Florida, especially with what we know about trying to poll Spanish speakers accurately.  If Clinton takes Florida, that's the election right there, regardless of what happens in CO or NV or ME or NC.


Absolutely right about Florida. If Clinton takes it, them even this map:

results in a Clinton win with 282. Trump would need to take MI, PA or VA to win, and all of those look pretty doubtful.

If trump prevailed in CO, no way he can lose FL,NC and ME 2.I am not sure about Nevada which he does not need to win at that point.
